This one is setup in our exercise room. Hooked up to cable and a disc player.
Great picture, easy to setup, easy to use remote.
Only one drawback, it needs better speakers. But we get around that by using headsets.

Comments about Samsung LN22A450 22" 720p LCD HDTV (Black):
I use this in the bedroom and used a wall mount. Picture quality is very good and dispite what others say about the sound quality, I do not hear what they are saying. Sound is good. This is made for a smaller area like a bedroom, kitchen, etc. This was the perfict size for the mounting area I had. Easy to use and for the price you can't go wrong. Nice bright image for a room that has sunlight.

Comments about Samsung LN22A450 22" 720p LCD HDTV (Black):
Wanted an HDTV of 22in. to fit into a specific spot. This works fine. Picture is sharp and clear. Colors are great. TV has lots of jacks and connectors on the rear for use with other devices. Remote control is large enough so you can read the buttons easily and push the correct one.
Only bad point is the small speakers on the bottom of the display. Their reproduction of sounds, especially lower tones, is poor. If you are a classical music lover, you will need to consider a supplemental sound system instead of the speakers on the display.

Comments about Samsung LN22A450 22" 720p LCD HDTV (Black):
I bought this TV to replace a 19" CRT. I needed a model that would fit into a fairly small space, but wanted to go as big as I could. This TV fit the bill. It arrived promptly and intact, and setup was easy. It doesn't weigh very much and I had no trouble attaching it to the included stand. The picture quality is beautiful, with no glare or visible pixels at a normal viewing distance (about 6-8 feet in the room where this TV resides). I'm very satisfied with the connection options. The sound is a bit tinnier than the old CRT but still quite acceptable. If I was really serious I'd hook it up to a receiver and speakers, anyway. I use the TV with over-the-air digital broadcast on my HD TiVo, as well as with Netflix Watch Instantly via TiVo. Both types of video look great. I have also plugged in my Wii and, too, looks great. My only complaint is that I really don't like the remote the TV came with, it's shaped oddly and not very intuitive, I always pick it up upside-down. That said, I appreciate the "input" button on the remote, for switching between input types quickly. Very useful.

Comments about Samsung LN22A450 22" 720p LCD HDTV (Black):
I'm surprised and very satisfied with the picture and sound. The screen is bright and the picture looks almost 3 dimensional! I looked at similar brands and chose this one because I thought it was the best value. I would like the base to tilt, but I haven't figured that out yet.

Comments about Samsung LN22A450 22" 720p LCD HDTV (Black):
This TV is in our entertainment center. We use it quite a bit. The only problem is it doesn't have enough volume. Granted we are not youngsters but the previous TV which also was a Samsung had enough volume to satisfy us. This one is lacking. The good thing about it is the picture. It has very good color and sharpness. I have not been able to connect my DVD player to it.
